Once again, Kimmel entertains us by encouraging parents to prank their kids

Parents were asked to pretend that they'd eaten all their kids’ Halloween candy and to post video of the reaction on YouTube. Jimmy Kimmel put together a montage of the best reactions. This is the sixth annual “Hey Jimmy Kimmel I told my kids I ate all their Halloween candy.”

What could be more fun than trick-or-treating? Watching kids cry, punch and swear at their parents when they find out that all the Halloween candy they collected is gone.

The YouTube prank, "Hey, Jimmy Kimmel. I told my kids I ate all their Halloween candy" is commissioned by the late-night host and challenges parents to film themselves telling their kids that they ate all their Halloween treats.

At least, that's what he told Guillermo Rodriguez from "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in a segment that aired...

Kimmel debuted his annual montage, which is in its sixth year, on Tuesday night. There is something cruel yet hilarious about watching distraught children scream, sob, scold and swear after learning their parents polished off all of their hard-earned candy.

It's fun to laugh at these kids now, but let's be honest, we'd likely cry salty tears of devistation over the loss of a few candy bars, too. Because obviously.
